Battery Handling Precautions

Incorrect use or handling of batteries can cause them to leak

or burst and seriously damage your camera. Be sure to note

the following important precautions to avoid problems with

batteries.

• Remove batteries from the camera if you do not plan to use

it for more than two weeks.

• Never recharge batteries, never allow direct connection

between two ends of a battery, and never try to take batter-

ies apart.

• Do not expose batteries to direct heat or dispose of them

by burning. Doing so can create the danger of explosion.

• Never mix batteries of different types.

• Dead batteries are susceptible to leakage, which can

cause serious damage to your camera. Remove batteries

from the camera as soon as you notice they are dead.

• The batteries that power this camera normally become

warm when they lose power. This does not indicate mal-

function.

POWER SUPPLY

• Use only LR6 (AM-3) type alkaline or FR6 type

lithium dry cell batteries with this camera.

Never mix old batteries with new ones. Failure

to do so can result in bursting or leaking of bat-

teries, creating the danger of fire or personal

injury.

CAUTION

Type of Operation

Auto Play

Continuous Recording

AA-size alkaline batteries LR6

Approximately 100 minutes

Approximately 190 shots

NOTE

Battery life is based on Panasonic’s alkaline batteries

and Fujifilm’s lithium batteries.

They may vary if other manufacturer’s batteries are

used. For your reference, the values when the camera

is operated with Duracell’s batteries are shown below.

• Always make sure that the positive [+] and

negative [–] ends of the batteries are facing

correctly, as noted by the markings on the

camera itself. Improper loading of batteries can

result in bursting or leaking of batteries, creat-

ing the danger of personal injury or soiling of

objects nearby.

CAUTION

Auto Power Off

Power automatically turns off whenever you do not perform

any camera operation for a period of time. Power turns off

after about two minutes in the Record Mode or after about

five minutes in the Playback Mode.

• To restore power, simply slide the POWER Switch to the

right as you normally do.

IMPORTANT!

The Auto Power Off function does not operate under the

following conditions.

• During playback of a movie (page 34)

• During playback of a panorama (page 35)

• During Auto Play (page 39)

• During infrared communication (page 65)

• When operations are being performed on a computer

connected to the camera via the camera’s DIGITAL

terminal. (page 59)

• Whenever the AC adaptor is connected to the camera.

Low Battery Indicator

The battery capacity indicator in the lower left of the monitor

screen (shown only when image information display is

turned on) changes to “

” whenever battery power goes

low. If you continue to use the camera, a battery warning

indicator “

” will appear in the center of the monitor

screen, and then camera power will automatically turn off. If

this happens, replace all four batteries with new ones as

soon as possible.

Note that the camera may automatically shut down at a

somewhat higher level of remaining battery capacity when a

computer is connected to its DIGITAL terminal for data com-

munication. This is to protect against problems caused by

sudden power outage during data communications. Be-

cause of this, we strongly recommend that you use the op-

tionally available AC adaptor to power the camera whenever

performing data communication with a personal computer.

POWER SUPPLY

• Always be sure to use the AD-C620 AC adap-

tor only. Using any other AC adaptor can cause

damage to the camera not covered by the war-

ranty.

• When unplugging the AC adaptor from the wall

socket, be sure to grasp the adaptor (not the

cord).

• Avoid an undue bending, pulling, and twisting

of the AC adaptor’s cord, and never try to

lengthen the cord by splicing it with other wire.

• Be sure to switch power off before connecting or discon-

necting the adaptor.

• Always turn camera power off before disconnecting the AC

adaptor, even if the camera has batteries installed. If you

don’t, the camera will turn off automatically when you dis-

connect the AC adaptor. Even so, you run the risk of dam-

aging the camera whenever you disconnect the AC adap-

tor without first turning power off.

• The AC adaptor may become warm to the touch after ex-

tended periods of use. This is normal and is not cause for

alarm.

• After use turn off the power switch of the camera and un-

plug adaptor from the AC outlet.

Using AC Power

To power the camera from standard AC power, use the op-

tional AC adaptor (AD-C620).

AC Adaptor precautions

• Never use an electrical outlet whose voltage is

outside the rating marked on the AC adaptor.

Doing so can create the danger of fire or elec-

trical shock. Use only the optional AC adaptor

specified for this camera.

• Should the cord of the AC adaptor become

damaged (exposed internal wiring or shorts),

request a replacement from an authorized

CASIO service provider. A damaged AC adap-

tor cord creates the danger of fire or electrical

shock.
